The Governor explained that the counties of Clark, Delaware, Fayette, Franklin, Pickaway, Paulding, Putnam, and Summit have now been included as major disaster areas as the result of the April 3rd, 1974 tornadoes. This brings the total of counties declared to be disaster areas to fourt?en, as six were included in the Governor's original announcement, made on April 9, 1974. The six were Adams, Butler, Greene, Hamilton, Madison, and Warren. Governor Gilligan explained that under DUA persons eligible for unemployment assistance payments will be those who live or work in the disaster area, either for themselves or for an employer, and who: ?No longer had a job or a place to work in the area ?Could not get to their place of employment, even if the work were outside the disaster area. ?Were prevented from going to work because of an illness of injury resulting from the disaster. DUA payments are retroactive to the date of the storms. The Governor said individuals recently unemployed, or those completing school or training, may also be eligible if the disaster prevented them from obtaining work. Governor Gilligan stated that all applications and claims for this assistance are to be filed in the regular unemployment claims offices of the Ohio Bureau of Employment Services. He noted that under federal regulations, all DUA applications for the eight counties must be filed with OBESonor before May 20, 1974. According to William E. Games, OBES Administrator, the level of DUA paymentsfunds for which are provided by the Federal Government under the Disaster Relief Act of 1970? are related to prior earnings. The OBES Administrator explained that the minimum amount to be paid would be equal to the average unemployment compensation payment made by the state, or $59.00 The maximum amount would equal the highest unemployment compensation payment made by the state, or $114 00 Games said that anyone who believes he is entitled to DUA should go to the nearest local claims office of the Bureau as soon as possible. Applicants should bring their Social Security Account TAX RELIEF AVAILABLE FOR TORNADO VICTIMS Cleveland, Ohio? Tax benefits are available to tornado taxpayers in three northern Ohio counties who suffered property losses as a result of the tornado which occurred April 3, 1974, according to Robert J Dath, IRS District Director. Special provisions of the tax law enable taxpayers located in Paulding, Putnam and Summit Counties, declared disaster areas by the President on April 13, 1974, to deduct disasterrelated casualty losses on either the current year's return or that of the preceding year by filing Form 1040X, amended return. The law covers losses of business property, as well as personal property, and extends to taxpayers who use either a fiscal-year or calendar-year basis to file their tax return. Non -business losses are limited to the amount over $100 for each casualty. "A list of items lost or damaged, showing initial cost, value immediately before the loss, and value after the loss occurred, is recommended," Dath said. "Photos of damaged property are very helpful, as are appraisals of damage to property that must be repaired before making a claim. Taxpayers who need help in preparing their returns or making a claim for refund can call their local IRS office or send a postcard requesting a free copy of IRS Publication 547, "Tax Information on Disasters, Casualty Losses and Thefts." BONUS NEWS COLUMBUS, Ohio (April 24)? John W. Bush, Director of the Ohio Vietnam Veterans Bonus Commission today announced bonus applications will be available Monday, May 20. "County Veterans Service Officers in the 88 Ohio counties," he stated, "have agreed to begin distributing application packets simultaneously, at 9 a.m. on that date." "In this way," Bush continued, "every eligible veteran, no matter where he lives in Ohio, will have an equal opportunity to get his application."Director Bush also said that any veteran or next-of-kin of a deceased veteran, living outside Ohio, who had requested an application from the Com mission Office, would be mailed a packet before general distribution. "This application packet is more than a single sheet," Bush stressed. "Included in each packet will be specific instructions for completing the forms and a card which the individual must fill out so the Commission can acknowledge an application." Bush said the Ohio National Guard is volunteering troops and trucks to move more than 1,000,000 application packets to County Veterans Service Officers throughout Ohio over the weekend prior to Monday, May 20, 1974 Bush will meet with County Veterans Service Officers within the next few days to coordinate distribution plans. Number, and if possible, any papers showing employment or earnings prior to the disaster. If ill or injured because of the disasters, the applicants should write to the local office and request assistance. Offices serving the affected counties are: Summit County: 150 E.

Ohio 45875 PLAYED THE LOST CHORD Wilbert Oliver The Christians sat in "awe" for the duration of the district conference held this week at St. Luke AME Church, Alliance while they listened to the heavenly chords of one of the most distinguished organist of the church, in the person of Wilbert Oliver. Mr. Oliver is a quite, little man and goes unnoticed in the congregation. However, this week, the service was incomplete without him as he lifted everyone up to the throne and presence of God with his organ recitals, chords and favorite hymns Mr. Oliver has been playing at St. Luke. Alliance, for 37 years He was trained at an early age by Professor Moore, a native Englishman who was the choir Director and Organist for the Presbyterian church at Sewackly, Pa. Mr. Oliver first played the organ for the movie houses during the 30's. He played in several famous bands. He is a member of the American Guild of Organists. THE ROLE OF THE PASTOR-EVANGELIST By Rev. Simon A. Perkins, Jr. It is unique within itself that a presiding elder at this stage of the African Methodist Episcopal Church Ministry, would even include the role of a Pastor as Evangelist. It has often been said that truth is stranger than fiction, and the truth of the matter is, that within the confines of the African Methodist Church, from Africa to the Islands, from California to New York, the emphasis on evangelism has been nil. We have become the masters of majoring in minors. We have placed our emphasis on administration without taking note of having something of which to administer to. The pastor, in my opinion, is always an Evangelist. It is unique also to note that the word Evangelism is not even a theological word. It originates with both the Greeks and the French work Evangel meaning "an angel of mercy or one who comes to bring light and offer mercy in the light that he brings", in the final analysis in love, he is to deal easy with the unsaved. 1 John 4:10; therefore any pastor, out of necessity must be an evangelist. We have developed the uniqueness of this day in patronizing and labeling various categories as departments of; but, a department of evangelism is not evangelism any more than a department of pastoral work is pastoral work. ITiere is a Greek word called "Eudaemonia" which means literally "the well being of the soul", and refers to the ethical theories that make the aim of all right action the health or welfbeingof the aged Since the Pastor is an agent working for the Master he certainly must be an agent working for the well being of the soul, and before there is a soul to be supervised in the institutional church, that soul must first be won to Christ, and this must be done in the good, physical, mental and spiritual health attitude. Since what constitutes health or well being is itself a matter of dispute, there are a variety of eudaemonistic ethical theories. Ancient Christian writers naturally believed that the true health of the soul consist in the love of God, and to this extent, advocated a Christian Kudaemonism. This tendency has been critized by some contemporary Protestant Theologians. However, the uniqueness of the Pastor in the role of evangelism is basic and actually at this point is really academic. How can one love God and not be willing to win for Him. Naturally this brings us to another usage that the pastor must consider and that is the usage of the term "absolution". In broad speaking terms, "absolution is the declaration of the forgiveness of sin." The Pastor must teach that Christ forgives sin and this in itself is evangelism because it is bringing light to the darkness. Whereas, I am aware of those who believe in the metaphysical view of acosmism that the "physical world does not exist but is only a manifestation of the absolute spirit which alone is real." That still does not deter my thinking and should not deter any other pure Christian Recently four black staff persons with the Ohio Board of Regents issued a statement calling for greater "sensitivity and responsiveness" to blacks in higher education throughout the state of Ohio The Board of Regents is responsible for overseeing higher education in Ohio. The four blacks, Charles W. Seward III, Jimmie Knight, Homer Sippio and Eileen Fuller made 5 basic recommendations. They are: I.

Pastor's thinking and should not ding of the philosophy of absolutism. The pastor first of all must have basic beliefs himself. The usage of the (actus pur us is a scholastic term for diety.) Now, because the divine being was regarded as essentially unchanging and all change was. be definition, regarded as the transition from potentialty to actuality. It follows then that the divine must be pure actuality (He must have pure powers of absolutism.) So then, evangelism at this point is a pure and unequivocally, and unalterably, and unabashedly a system of agathologv which is simply the pastor must first combine the inquiry into the nature of the good and this might be termed as ethics or christian ethics, social, natural, perfection, summun-borum or whatever the case might be, but this perhaps has been the basic reason why the pastor has not felt that he himself was evangelistically inclined. One of the chronic reasons and most pertinent to the subject of today's lecture is the term pastoral altruism. It denotes a selfless concern for the well-being of others and this is intended to ruffle the feathers of any minister of the gospel who is in the ministry for the well being of self and not for the well being of the lost, TO BE CONTINUED NEXT WEEK This position should be created within the next bieonium and should hence, be a part of the Board's operating budget for the coming biennium. The Vice -Chancellor for Minority Affairi should be involved in the rstolving of racial problems within the agency and more importantly involved in the higher education institutions and the higher education system as such relates to minority enrollment, institutional programs for minority students, institutional responsiveness to minority educational needs within the urban environment where the institutions are located, minority representation withn the faculty and all levels of administration, and minority representation on Board of Trustees I. The creation of as affirmative action program ? It hin the Board of Kegeats: This is a program in which the Vice-Chancellor for Minority Affairs could be directly involved. The Board should develop a program of active aggressive recruitment of qualified Blacks to fill all level of positions within the Board. Internally, there should be a program of staff development uniquely oriented towards the Black staff members. J. The creation of a Vice Chancellor for Student AM: A qualified Black should be appointed to this position. The upgrading of the position of Director to Vice-Chancellor appears justified in light of the fact that student aid is becoming an ever-increasing and important component of the financing of higher education in Ohio and with the emergence of the States Student Incentive Grant Program, an important state-federal partnership is becoming a reality and requires the kind of upper administrative input and access within the Board to fully implement and develop all aspects of student aid, financing higher education and state-federal partnership contingencies. 4. The upgrading of the salaries of Eileen Fuller and Itegina Goodman: In response to the racial implications involved in the salary structure of these two employes, it is recommended that the salary of Eileen Fuller be increased from the current $11,066 to $14,500, the salary as advertised when the position was initially established and that Regina Goodman's salary be increased from the current $9,006 to $12,000 which is responsive to the salary of one competent to do the work over that of the previous white employe holding the same position and who was determined to be incompetent while receiving a punitive salary of $11,000 5. The need for a minimum of two Black Board members: It is recommended that the Chancellor use all of his influence with the Governor and seek support from the Board to insure that when a future vacancy occurs, due to the retirement or expiration of term of a white Board member, such position be filled by a qualified Black and that a minimum of two Black Board members be maintained at all times
